This video is about progIn this episode of EmpowerND, we’re continuing our conversation with Megan Gietzen, FNP, for The Progesterone Piece: Sleep, Mood, Cycles & Hormone Balance.Progesterone is often talked about in relation to pregnancy, but its role in women’s health goes far beyond that. This hormone can impact sleep quality, mood changes, anxiety, cycle regularity, PMS symptoms, and the way we feel throughout different phases of the month.Megan helps us better understand what progesterone does in the body, why hormone balance can feel different from one woman to another, and what signs may point to something being off. We also talk about the importance of tracking symptoms, advocating for yourself, and having informed conversations with your healthcare provider when your cycle, mood, or energy just does not feel right.Whether you are navigating irregular cycles, mood changes, sleep struggles, perimenopause symptoms, or simply trying to better understand your body, this episode is a helpful place to start.Learn more about Women Empowering Women and our programs at wewnetwork.org.Send us Fan MailThe EmpowerND Podcast is hosted by Women Empowering Women, a membership based non-profit organization dedicated to connecting, supporting, and educating women.
